When Chestnuts Australia Inc. first contacted me to offer me a sample of chestnuts, I was beside myself with excitement. I love chestnuts, and it conjured up memories of strolling through Milan in the middle of winter with snowflakes falling and keeping my hands warm around a cup of fragrant, fresh roasted chestnuts. Romantic, no? Well, … Read More →
About three weeks ago, my friend Martin tweeted me a link, suggesting it was something I might like to do. I clicked on the link and thought, huh, someone’s trying to find a good burger in Sydney? Sure I’ll bid for the task! Well, lo and behold, ’twas Martin who put me onto the Airtasker … Read More →
I was a little bit anxious about my visit to Moo Gourmet Burgers. Having been to Moo a couple of times, I’ve always come away with a red, sore mouth, completely beat up from the hard, crusty roll. Maybe I have a tofu mouth! But Panu agrees that the buns we’ve had were tough, as … Read More →
Day 2 of my Airtasker Burger Run and I am still going strong! (Ask me again in about 8 days). Número dos saw Panu and I at Grill’d, Darlinghurst – but I prefer to think of it as Surry Hills, because (a) it’s on Crown Street and (b) there’s another Grill’d in Darlinghurst so, you know, … Read More →
First and foremost, sorry for the blurry photo. I was not, as you might think, drunk on burger goodness. It wasn’t even because the lighting in Four In Hand was particularly dark. Well, it was a little dark. I don’t have an excuse at all, except if I was to really dig deep, I’d say I was … Read More →
Can you believe it? My 10 day burger run has finally come to an end. I asked Panu last night, “what am I going to eat now?” He said, “What you normally eat” and I’m like, “What do I normally eat???” I can’t recall a life before burgers, but I’m sure my waistline will be … Read More →
I have talked to everyone about Airtasker. I’m pretty sure that Airtasker didn’t expect me to, but by nature of the question “um, why are you eating 10 burgers in 10 days?”, the answer requires me to explain the whole idea of Airtasker and why anyone in their right mind would want to pay me … Read More →
Day 3 of my Airtasker burger run! I knew I was going to have a meh burger at some point, I was just quietly hoping it wasn’t going to be for the next say, five years. But alas, it came rather sooner than that. My cheeseburger at Burgerlicious makes this review easy because all I need … Read More →
Half way through my Airtasker burger run! Yes, I am still alive. No, I have not weighed myself. And I will not, for fear of condemning myself to a life of salads with no dressing for all of eternity. So I’d rather live in ignorant bliss and enjoy the fat that is currently coursing through … Read More →
Third last burger of my Airtasker burger run took me to BenBry Burgers in Manly last night. I was particularly looking forward to this because I hadn’t been to BenBry before and it’s been on my hit list for an eternity. Or about nine months, if you’re really counting. I’d read countless great reviews about this hole-in-the-wall burger joint … Read More →
